Ad Initio

One must introduce oneself, to the minimum, one must introduce the self that one wishes to show.
My associate and I have established different subjects to write about, while he will focus more on economic matters and the associated fallacies of society, I will do my best to dismantle the "beautiful lies" of our post modern conjuncture and the void it has attached to it, I also accept requests regarding subjects that grasp my interest, you are welcomed and encouraged to make suggestions by any means you deem fit,  you can also expect  political and philosophical reflections, often based in the work of many great minds from Ancient Greece to this day.

First impressions are one of the simplest forms of human unconscious arrogance, in truth, they are no  more than reflections of badly structured and inconsistent ideas that inhabit our mind. The absence of knowledge that pollutes our society has healing proprieties, we find comfort  in not knowing for it brings a curse larger than the bliss of ignorance.

It is this I intend to fight, but not alone, this small corner of the internet will serve as the receptacle for yet another string of thoughts. The very characteristics of this age fill the collective emptiness of a civilization, lost in the aeons of time filled with discovery and progress, swimming against the tide in the middle of a storm is an unholy and undeserved mission for even the most brilliant of characters, but audere est facere, to dare is to do.

The antithesis to our spiritual Zeitgeist has been spread in such a profuse way that unity is a  dim image of the past collective spirit of mankind, we are  left with shards of thoughts that have  diluted in the comfortable sphere of populism, the art of pleasing the masses has hardly changed since the days of Ancient Rome, bread and circus are, in the end, a sure-fire recipe to achieve the end game of another era of ratifying masses.

Technology, information, Internet, the most advanced science in this world, space expeditions, and yet nihil novi sub sole, we are perhaps at one of the most spiritually decadent times of  mankind, even more saddening is the fact that such idea is not accepted or even disputed, the worship of money has set its roots in society and its grip holds herculean strength, the pray holds  no resistance, a rodent caught by a mighty Anaconda, the only difference being the fact the rodent knows what its end will be.

Alea iacta est.
